Fred was in my town tonight

Nevada hosted Gilbert tonight. Fred's daughter plays basketball and Pollard's son plays basketball. Didn't go to the game but heard Fred was there and Paige scored 23 points basketball genes obviously in that family. Wish I had gone now.

My wife was at the game, drooling over Coach McDreamy. Hopin' that pays dividends for the ol' Naughtius later.

Hmmm...wonder why his kids don't go to Ames schools.

Your town is a better place now.

Mainly because most of the coaches live in NE story county, in Gilbert school district.....Rhoads, Hoiberg, Fennelley, Jackson. Pollard. Not sure if more are there too.

Because he lives in North Ames and choose to have his kids go there? I will never understand why people get butthurt where he chooses to send his kids to school. My wife teaches in the district and this is a bone of contention for some people and I don't get it.

It was just a question, numbnuts. No one is butthurt. But some people are obviously overly sensitive about the matter.

Fennelly's went to Ames High, they live in Northridge.

North of Bloomington Road is Gilbert school district which includes Northridge Heights, Bloomington Heights which are in Ames.

also Jackson was going to go to Ames but found out he was going to have to miss some or all of the football season as a transfer student so went to Gilbert.

I wondered if CPR's kids did basketball, but I heard I guess they are wrestlers instead.

Considering that I don't live in Ames right now, you must be wrong. I couldn't care less where his kids go to school. Although for their sake, I hope your wife isn't their teacher.

Oh yeah, those of us in Ames who support Ames High are quite frustrated that Ames doesn't have the kind of properties that the high paid coaches want.

In the case of FH, don't you think he would like the idea of his kids going to his own high school rather than the next one north? Not saying that it isn't a good choice to send them to Gilbert, but it is a bit awkward for the Mayor of Ames (not Gilbert).
